Lifetime is kicking off 2015 with a “big” bang as it will premiere its latest reality show venture, Big Women: Big Love, which “examines the lives of five plus-sized women as they navigate the tricky waters of the turbulent and sometimes harsh dating scene, struggling through bad dates and worse judgements.”
The five women featured on the show range from 27 to 34 years old and are from cities all around the country, including Atlanta, Los Angeles, Brooklyn, Fort Worth, and Clifton, New Jersey.
“Shining a light on a group of women who are rarely the focus of TV cameras,” reads the Lifetime press release, “the show provides a unique point of view on their experiences in love and life.”
And here are the five ladies featured on Big Women: Big Love, including first and last names and social media links (where available).

MAR ORTIZ

SABRINA SERVANCE
31-year old Sabrina is from Brooklyn and everything about Sabrina is big — big hair, big fashion and an even bigger personality. The self-described dork is never one to turn down an invitation and always makes the best of every situation, particularly while searching for a man who shares her love of video games.

KRISTI WILEY
Kristi is a 34-year-old single mother raising her daughter in Fort Worth, Texas. She is using the internet as her dating guru, but hasn’t found the southern gentleman of her dreams yet.
JESSICA AMMONS
29-year-old Jessica is from Atlanta, Georgia and seems to already be working on getting booted from Season 2 after recently losing 100 pounds! 😉 She is a makeup artist who still lives at home with her overbearing mother. Jessica’s perfect man is educated, spiritual, successful, respects women and knows how to wine, dine and surprise her.

JENN DOWDING
